Does anyone actually reckon the Cowboys dominated that game?

The real stitch-ups are when a succession of poor decisions at timely moments dictate the momentum of a game. Wasn't the case here.

Was pretty even in the end, no? Can't say Sharks really dominated

Shit happens, thought Sharks were still the better team, if only marginally. The 7th tackle was hilariously incompetent. Fairly similar situation to the Knights Panthers game with the video ref howler early on.

So the message from LU is clear if bad call against you early no biggie.

And of Phil Gould says your team was the better than the ends justify the means

If the sharks were the better team, how come they only won by 2 points after being given 6 points illegally?

It was a tight game & was a real finals hit out. Very tough from both sides. To say 6 points head start shouldn't have made a difference, doesn't understand how tough it is to win these games.

Not blaming the sharks. They deserved to win, as did the Cowboys.

I'm just gutted that us cowboy fans have to sit through another off season with this over our heads.

The Cows let them go 80+ metres in that set. They were on their way to being cracked then went on to blow several tries later

Whinge about the call but its tough to be sympathetic about the loss

Yeah I do think the crying about the calls every finals series needs to stop, we had some errors and just weren't the better team on the day.
Well done sharks, hopefully they beat manly.

So because NQ defended poorly during the set, they deserved to then have another tackle added?

You are obviously enjoying this but us supporters have hade to deal with being stiffed out of the 04, 12 and 13 finals series.

A bit of sensitivity wouldn't go astray fella.

At the end of the day, we scored more legitimate points than they. How could we not deserve to win that being the case?
